February 2, 2004, Greencastle, Ind. - "Tiffany Wilding is a prospective economics major. Kyle Hampton wants to study communications. But since January 7, the pair of DePauw University freshmen, along with 33 other cast and crew members, have found themselves center stage and living the theater life," writes Brian Kern in the Flyer of Hendricks County, Indiana. "The project is a class and part of DePauw's month-long winter term program designed for student enrichment. For these students, the ultimate goal is the successful production of Frank Wedekind's Spring's Awakening and the challenge is by no means an easy one."

The story points out that "Unlike most high school and collegiate productions that span over several months in a semester, Spring's Awakeningis being produced and directed in only a matter of weeks, a method known in the theater world as summer stock."
